The British Ecological Society: Grants of up to £2000

The British Ecological Society actively encourage their members to promote ecological science to a wide audience and offer grants of up to £2,000.

They define ecology as the scientific study of the distribution, abundance and dynamics of organisms, their interactions with other organisms and their physical environment.

Applications should promote and engage the public with the science of ecology. Grants will not be awarded for purely nature conservation purposes or any activity that does not promote the science of ecology.

They support projects that:

Increase public understanding of, and engagement with, ecology

Stimulate discussion about ecology and its implications for society

Inspire and enthuse people of all ages about the science of ecology, especially those not previously interested

Develop skills in communicating the science of ecology

Deadline
Their first round of funding is now open.
Deadline: 17:00 (GMT), Wednesday 22 March.
All project start dates will need to be after 14 May 2017.
